My Magimix food processor's bowl is worn

[SEEING-TO-BELIEVE]

is it a good idea to buy a new one from amazon? i don't know if they carry such parts.

in israel the company sells them expensively

it's a pretty old machine

Have you been in touch with the distributor? There is one in Israel.

What do you mean by worn. Is it leaking? cracked? or discoloured? as in hazy from being scratched.

hazy and scratched and barely getting closed

i thought i said that in israel it is very expensive. anyway. after i've checked online i've discovered that it is expensive all over the world.

magimix itself is expensive, so it is no surprise that replacement parts are expensive. If I werefortunate enough to own a magimix, I woulod pay for the replacement parts.

I agree Silversage.
How long have you had it? If it is a great to use, and often used - then you don't want to become frustrated, especially not closing well.
I would go for the replacement.
